The mother had already picked up her child, repeatedly thanking Mengdie, who was in critical condition. The village had narrowly escaped a catastrophe, but the faces of Nia and her companions showed no sign of relief. They all gathered in Grandma Gluma's house, anxiously looking at the girl lying on the bed, unconscious and missing an arm.

Father Cotton sat beside Mengdie, his hands continuously radiating a comforting and peaceful golden light. Xiu also chanted superficial divine spells, trying his best to alleviate Mengdie's pain. Both were drenched in sweat from exhaustion and tension.

As time ticked by, the golden light in Xiu's hands first faded away. He collapsed on the floor, gasping for air, his face pale from overexertion. Grandma Gluma hurriedly brought him a cup of water to drink.

"Waste scientist! How is Sister Mengdie now?!" Nia grabbed Xiu, her eyes constantly scanning Mengdie's body, especially the torn arm, her voice filled with panic.

Xiu shook his head, not answering. After resting for a while, he began chanting divine spells again, aiding Father Cotton in the healing process.

With their combined efforts, the blood flowing from Mengdie's wounds finally began to slow down and eventually stopped. Father Cotton sighed in relief, continuing to control the wound on Mengdie's right arm with one hand while he drank the tea handed to him by Grandma Gluma.

"Father! Sage! How is Mengdie now?!" Edward, holding his sword, trembled anxiously.

Father Cotton put down his teacup and continued to control Mengdie's condition with both hands. "To be honest, it's very bad. If it were an ordinary person who lost that much blood, they would have died by now. But this girl's vitality is extraordinary; she hasn't died despite losing so much blood. However, she can't hold on much longer in this state. She's been unconscious, and if she doesn't regain consciousness, even the goddess's arrival couldn't revive her."

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

Edward: "Regain consciousness? Sage, how can we make her regain consciousness?!"

Cotton: "Well, I can use divine power to stimulate her spirit, forcing her to regain consciousness. But doing so will accelerate her blood circulation at the beginning, and her already overburdened body might not withstand it, leading to fatal bleeding. However, it's the only way that might cure the girl before she bleeds out slowly."

Unable to move forward or back, they were in a dilemma. Seeing Mengdie's face turn as white as paper, Edward was in utter despair. But at the height of his sorrow, an idea suddenly struck him.

"Right! Let Mengdie remain unconscious, keep her in a coma! Her body can heal itself while asleep! Not just the wounds, even the severed arm might grow back!!!"

Hearing Edward's words, the worried Nia also showed an excited smile, looking expectantly at Father Cotton.

However, Xiu, frowning, gently shook his head.

"Edward, I'm aware that Mengdie's body can automatically heal wounds, but I also know that it's limited to wounds, not her vitality. In such severe blood loss, keeping her unconscious is very unwise. She might die of heart failure before her body heals. Are we really willing to take this risk?"

Xiu's words left Nia and Edward speechless. Father Cotton looked at Xiu, then stroked his chin in thought. After a while, he made up his mind.

"Indeed, this girl's body is unique. I've never seen anything like it. Since you say she can heal herself, let's take this chance. But during this time, the girl must be constantly under divine power protection while in a coma. You're... Xiu, right? You're a magician... well, a magic apprentice. Although there are many differences between divine power and magic, you might understand divine power better than others. I'll teach you some useful divine spells, and we'll take turns treating her over the next few days, understood?"

Xiu was visibly surprised when he heard Father Cotton offer to teach him divine power. But within a second, his expression returned to normal, and he nodded emphatically.

That night, while protecting Mengdie's severed arm, Father Cotton orally shared knowledge and spells about healing with divine power. Xiu, a diligent student, took out a notebook and recorded the spells and methods word for word. By dawn, Xiu had memorized the use of divine power. After a short rest, he replaced Father Cotton, becoming Mengdie's guardian.

With tired eyes from a sleepless night, Father Cotton asked anxiously, "Did you memorize it?"

Xiu nodded, placing the notebook by Mengdie's bed, his hands clasped together, opening up. Suddenly, a very strong golden light of a shield-shaped magic formation emerged in his hands! When he placed his hands over Mengdie's right arm, her pale face instantly improved, and her breathing became much steadier.

Cotton: "Your hidden power... is great!"

In front of an equally sleepless Edward and Nia, Cotton generously praised Xiu. Xiu blushed slightly but continued to maintain Mengdie's condition.
